A new way to power your craft has been added with the power cell (item) and the power cell base (brick).
This is mainly to address a gap in powering smaller craft like hovercraft in survival, as using fuel is higher tier and more complex.
Place a power cell base on an entity and plug a power cell to it.
You can set the base to either charge power or draw power from the cell.

Survival Impact:
This build now counts the item bar volume in the total player volume.
The base player volume has been increased to 3000L.
